This Saturday evening, Paris Saint-Germain hosted Racing Club de Lens for the tenth day of Ligue 1. From the fourth minute of play, the capital club opened the scoring. Starting alone on his left side, Barcola served Dembélé perfectly at the far post.
The Ile-de-France number 10 only had to finish in the empty goal (1-0). The former FC Barcelona player had the opportunity to make the break, but his shot hit Samba’s post (15th). Asensio also had several opportunities to double the lead for the Rouge en Bleu. In vain, since the Lensois goalkeeper rejected his attempt (35th) and had a firm hand (43rd). Just before half-time, Barcola also missed a big chance by hitting the crossbar.
Even with numerical superiority, PSG lacks efficiency
As the Sang et Or began to press PSG higher, Khusanov vigorously tackled Hakimi. Called by the VAR, Mr. Letexier showed the red card for the Uzbek defender (59th). Luis Enrique’s men continued to lack realism, notably Lee (67th) and Doué (76th and 90th+3).
Thanks to this narrow victory (1-0), PSG is now six points ahead of AS Monaco in the standings, given that the Principality club lost to Angers (1-0) on Friday evening. . RC Lens finds itself in seventh place, out of qualifying places for the European Cup.
